Thank you! Thank you! \r\n\r\nWe just finished reading \"Seedfolks\" in my freshman class, and my students truly enjoyed not only the story but also the meaningful discussions that followed. My hope in using this book was that students would explore themes of resilience, collaboration, and cultural understanding—and through our class discussions, I saw them meet this hope in incredible ways. \r\n\r\n\"Seedfolks\" tells the story of a community where people judge each other from afar, never truly connecting—until a young girl starts a community garden. As neighbors begin to step outside and interact, they build relationships and form a stronger, more unified community despite their differences. \r\n\r\nSome of our class discussions led to honest and sometimes uncomfortable conversations as students reflected on what they had been taught or assumed about other cultures. They realized that true understanding comes not from judging based on appearances or habits, but from meeting, listening, and engaging with people directly. \r\n\r\nThough \"Seedfolks\" is a short, 100-page read* the depth of our discussions made it so much more for my students.
